Ms. Kaiser's freshmen English class participated in a Book Buffet in the library. Four books of various genres were set up on tables for students to sample. First, they judged the book by its cover and then read the first chapter for three minutes. Next, they rated the book from delicious ("I'd like another helping") to disgusting and wrote their first impressions of the book. Students rotated around the tables to explore books in different genres (sports, adventure, realistic fiction, sci-fi/fantasy/supernatural, Native American). Students at each table discussed which book was their favorite. Finally, they were able to check out books that interested them.

In Mrs. Hellenga’s first grade class, students had a great time choosing partners with the wheel of name generator! They love seeing whose name pops up, and it’s a fun way to practice reading their classmates’ names. Once partners were picked, students read a story together, highlighted important deals in the book, and wrote their answers on their comprehension pages.
The 2nd graders enjoyed painting pumpkins this week!
